In terms of directing, I'm no expert, but I think it's a basic mistake to present characters on the right and left and then cut to the opposite side so they then appear left and right. I forget what they call it, but there's a term for crossing that 180 degree line.

Also, nearly all the discussion shots are framed really tight. You didn't have a master shot (a medium or long shot where you can see all the characters and their environment) to intersperse with the close ups.

There's some good back-and-forth and dialog overlapping, tho.

Yeah, it's something I didn't notice until I was editing the episode and most of the episodes were edited after I graduated, i.e. no chance for reshoots (for that episode, at least).
